  • Publication number: 20220313882
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) system using gravity to deliver fluid from one or more source dialysate bags to the patient as the destination. The present disclosure further relates to a load cell protection assembly that prevents the load cells associated with the delivery of fluid in the system from experiencing an overload condition in either the down direction or the up direction, while maximizing safety and efficiency of the system while minimizing excess cost and complexity.

  • Publication number: 20210378582
    Abstract: A system for assessing stroke conditions includes a wearable stimulator and a sensor device configured to obtain physiological data from a patient. The sensor device can include electrodes configured to detect electrical signals corresponding to brain activity. A computing device communicatively coupled to the wearable stimulator and the sensor device is configured to receive the physiological data and analyze the physiological data to provide a patient stroke assessment.

  • Publication number: 20200261638
    Abstract: An automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) system using gravity to deliver fluid from one or more source dialysate bags to the patient as the destination, and using gravity to deliver fluid from the source patient to the destination drain container or drain receptacle, and heats at least one dialysate bag placed onto a heated plate, and using a disposable tubing set is used for dialysate delivery to and from the patient, and using one or more solenoid-operated, normally closed, electronically-controlled pinch valves which pinch or release the disposable tubing set's tubing to stop or start fluid flow, respectively.

  • Patent number: 9815355
    Abstract: A canopy assembly for a ride-on vehicle includes a canopy having a plurality of receivers positioned on a bottom surface of the canopy, and a plurality of canopy supports that matches in number that of the plurality of receivers. Each of the plurality of canopy supports includes at a top a connector that is configured to securely engage one of the receivers. Additionally, each of the plurality of canopy supports includes a bottom end that is configured to securely fit within a receiving aperture formed in the body of the ride-on vehicle, thereby attaching the canopy assembly to the ride-on vehicle.

  • Patent number: 9545969
    Abstract: A conversion scooter is adapted for use as a sit to ride scooter in a first configuration and a stand to ride scooter in a second configuration. The conversion scooter has a frame, a steering assembly and a seat removably coupled to the frame. The steering assembly can be steered by a user in the first and second configurations. The frame has a first end portion and a second end portion, and a foot platform extending between the first end portion and the second end portion. In the first configuration a seat surface of the seat is generally parallel to a longitudinal axis of the frame, and in the second configuration the seat is coupled to a first end portion of the frame and the seat is generally transverse to the longitudinal axis of the frame. Seat securing members secure the seat in the first and second configurations.

  • Patent number: 9333977
    Abstract: A multipurpose wagon having a wagon body, front and rear wheels and a handle. The wagon body has a front portion and a rear portion, the handle being coupled to the front portion, a front wall adjacent the front portion and a rear wall adjacent the rear portion. Additionally, the wagon body has a first sidewall extending between the front wall and the rear wall along one side of the wagon body, and a second sidewall extending between the front wall and the rear wall along an opposing side of the wagon body. The first sidewall has a panel that is removable from the first side of the wagon body and connectable to the second sidewall of the wagon body.

  • Patent number: 9079110
    Abstract: A riding toy includes a body with a spring assembly supporting the body on a base so that the body may be moved in first and second motions with respect to the base. The riding toy also includes a microcontroller and first and second motion sensors responsive to the first and second motions, respectively. The first and second motion sensors are positioned on the body and in electronic communication with the microcontroller. A sound synthesizing circuit is in electronic communication with the microcontroller and a speaker. The microcontroller is programmed to provide a first sound effect when the first motion sensor detects the first motion and a second sound effect when the second sensor detects the second motion. The first sound effect is varied based on a speed of the first motion and preempts the second sound effect if both the first and second motions are taking place simultaneously. The riding toy also includes a light sensor in electronic communication with the microprocessor.

  • Patent number: 9027943
    Abstract: A scooter features a top tube attached to the top portion of a steering column and handlebars having handgrips and stems, with the stems sized to be received within the open ends of the top tube when in a use configuration. A handlebar holder housing covers a top portion of the steering column and a portion of the top tube and includes holding bores sized to receive the handlebar stems when the handlebars are in a storage configuration. The handlebar stems are provided with spring pins that engage use apertures and storage apertures formed in the top tube and housing, respectively, when in the handlebars are in the use and storage configurations. A cord passes through the top tube and is fastened to the handlebars. The handlebar holder housing includes cord slots in communication with the holding bores and receive the cord when the first and second handlebars are in the storage configuration.
